Default $55 TT level one facing huge overbet

no reads, 4th hand. I rarely believe villian has JJ+ here most of the time, but is that enough to warrant a call?

No. Muck it as fast as possible.

Unless he lost his first 225 in some painfully hilarious way, this is a muck.

Sure, if that's what you believe, why not call? You have him comfortably covered, and you're 57% against AK, for example.

But you better be pretty sure. If he has the overpair only 20% of the time and AK the rest, you're a dog here.

Fold. Without a read, Villan has an overpair here way too often to make you a favorite.

Not quite sure since I was still opening tables and what not. From the HH it appears he called a small raise, 2 value bets, then folded to a non interesting river

Was it the hand before? I'd be wary. I sometimes make this move if I've raised the last hand, or the last two hands, with AA and KK. It increases the chance of people thinking you're "full of it".. especially nice if you have AA or KK twice in a row, and get the first to showdown.

But it can also work the same if he gives the impression of being "on tilt".
